Here Are The Dumbest Pats Fans You'll See Today

(uhh you’re Australian dude. Go watch footie or something. PS – you suck at lighting things on fire)

(are you Southern? You have a voice like a dickhead, it’s sunny where you are, there’s a truck cap in your backyard, and you’re lighting shit on fire in front of your baby. Redneck moron)

(best way to make burning a jersey less childish is to turn it into some sort of Shakesperean performance. Although credit where it’s due: jersey looked pretty cool when it went up)

When I first saw that people were burning Welker’s jersey I got pretty upset. It’s sad enough that an adult man paid hundreds of dollars to wear another man’s name on his back. Even moreso when he feels so personally slighted by that man’s business decisions that he has to burn said jersey in effigy.

But after watching those videos it makes a little more sense. The only yahoos doing it don’t know anything about football. They think this is how they prove they’re diehard fans. Australians and rednecks and just weird nerds. People who think the only issue at the negotiating table was the “$500,000″ ($2 million dollars, but who’s counting?) difference in contracts. Any normal fan knows it’s 2 people who went their separate ways and won’t be lighting any jerseys on fire over it.
